Low payout: less than $100k to holders in 30 days, or payouts on fewer than 8 of the 30 days (for a token that pays in cycles of a week or longer: more than one of the payouts its cycle predicts missed); ranked within this group

ve / bribesbuyback share 100%

Pays out 6.5% of its market cap a year, using 100¢ of every $1 it earns.

Not a buyback: counts for 37% in the multiple (type factor 0.366525), so the denominator is $257k instead of $701k.

What we checked

Valuation
Multiple 42.2× (type factor 0.366525: payouts to vote lockers count 37%), 1.8× more expensive than its Dexs peers (median 23.3×, 14 tokens). The group's largest earner Uniswap trades at 37.3×: 1.1× dearer per dollar returned to holders. On total revenue: 15.5×, in line with the revenue peer median.
Distribution
ve / bribes: Includes bribes and vote incentives from third parties paid to vote-escrow lockers; no buy pressure on the token. Holders got $58k of $58k revenue in 30 days → buyback share 100%. DefiLlama: “External Bribes Revenue: External bribes rewards distributed to AQUA holders”
Sustainability
Holders were paid on 30 of 30 days (100%); largest single day 7% of the month's holders revenue; paid to holders this week: 32% of the best week in 90 days (more than half below peak). Revenue −17% over 7 days and −52% over 30 days, price −26% over 30 days.

What this does not tell you

The figures come from DefiLlama's adapter for each child protocol. Only a few tokens have an on-chain check (see How the buyback really works); for the rest, whether the tokens were really bought, burned or parked in a treasury wallet is not checked here. Unlocks count where DefiLlama or our research has a vesting schedule; team discretion and liquidity depth only once researched.
